Maybe big earhquake up here

There saying on our local news here in Seattle that we're now having a constant low level earthquake (plates moving?) and it'll last for a week. I think the tetonic plates are moving or something? I'm not a geologist.... I guess we could have one hell of a earthquake at anytime and we're at high risk within the next few weeks...I live on the west coast so we're use to this but it still sucks when it happens. We had a 6.8 about 5 years ago and that makes you feel pretty helpless if you've been in a big one before...It doesn't matter who you are or what you have, you're all in the same boat.

Why worry about it, nothing you can do.......

if you start having quakes up there, I'd get a little concerned about the possibility of Mt Rainier erupting. That could blow the same way Mt St Helens did in 1980 and if it did....well I wouldnt want to be in Seattle. The chances of that happening are really low though so not much to worry about.
